Growing an In-Sync Child: Simple, Fun Activities to Help Every Child Develop, Learn, and Grow; first edition (Perigee Books, 2010)

Based on the authors’ more than 70 combined years of professional success working with children of all abilities, “Growing an In-Sync Child” provides parents, teachers and other professionals with the tools to give every child a head start and a leg up.

Sensory-motor, perceptual-motor, and visual skills lay the foundation for early motor development.
